Just a week ago we were with you discovering and rediscovering New York which I really like very much. We much appreciated your deep knowledge of this city which you present with charm, intelligence, and elegance. Bravo and many thanks from all of us.

[Dear Frédérique,
We are back home, and I wanted to extend again my heartfelt thanks for the wonderful morning spent with you. It was a lot of fun—the right balance of information and inspiration. Even our son praised you! I am keeping your contact information for the next time. By the way, we went to Brookfield Place after the visit of the 9/11 Museum. Now I know why you like it—the French Marketplace is super and we had a lovely lunch…

[Hi Frédérique,
We wanted to thank you for your kindness and professionalism and for making our discovery of New York truly special and particularly interesting. We hope to see you again sooner or later.

[Dear Frédérique,
We wanted to thank you for the wonderful trip to New York. We were impressed by your culture and knowledge of American society, and extremely touched by your kindness to our grandchildren.

[Hello Frédérique,
We were in the USA 7 months ago and I want to thank you again for the interesting and comprehensive tour of NY. It was an experience to see NY in a different light. You helped introduce us to the "New World" in a memorable way. We spent a great day in your company. Even the Florida segment of our trip (Miami, Key West, etc.) was wonderful. Thank you also here for your suggestions which we were able to put to good use. We wish you a Merry Christmas and a good start in the New Year.

[Dear Mrs. Barbier,
Two days after my return from New York, I want to thank you for the quality of the program which you prepared for us. Everything was perfect. The "Lion King" was fabulous like all the rest. My son Maxime came back starry-eyed and dreams of going back. The guide was great, very kind and efficient. I hope to meet you during our next trip. Thank you again.

[Hi Frédérique,
Our return trip went very well. We wanted to thank you again for having illustrated with such competence and fun all the elements of the tour (Canada-East Coast-New York). We hope to have you as our guide again on another trip. Enjoy your holidays!

[Dear Frédérique,
We are getting extremely positive comments from the group (Santa Fe-San Francisco-Las Vegas-New York). All are praising your professionalism, your great organization and your charming ways. All guests were so happy that you took care of every detail and that you were so reliable! Brava!

[Hello Frédérique,
A big thank you for your super organization. All the family loved the trip. Having a guide to explain the history and evolution of NY was greatly appreciated by our children. Thank you so much—everything was great.

[Dear Mrs. Barbier,
I am thrilled that my camera was found. Thank you for all your help in helping me get it back--I can't thank you enough. I have already told you that you are the best guide I ever had on all my trips, and I can't repeat it enough. I got home 10 minutes ago and will tell all my friends about this great trip and advertise for you. Thank you again for the well organized and interesting tours. I really enjoyed everything.

Kind regards,Christel Berger, Hamburg]

Hi Frédérique,

Thank you so much for offering to do this tour for the Upshaw family. They emailed saying they had a blast. Here is the link to that segment of the show: PLEASE CLICK HERE

We would like to wish you and your family all the best for the New Year and to thank you again for a perfect September day [Harlem-Bronx-Queens-Brooklyn Tour] spent in your company. We think of our trip often and of all the impressions of your city which you perfectly communicated to us. Thank you so much. We will certainly be back! If you ever come to Hamburg (or to our native city Berlin!), please let us know so we can get together…

With fond memories of a wonderful Sunday in NYCSabine und Michael Michalik]

Brigitte and I want to thank you for having communicated to us your passion for New York. We really appreciated your brilliant culture, your savoir-faire which enabled us to discover the multiple aspects of this fascinating city, and your constant pleasant presence. We definitely want to return and are already thinking of how we can discover the different neighborhoods of New York with your help "on foot"! We thought of you when we saw the recent Live in HD performance of 'Carmen'.

Thank you again for everything. We wish you much happiness with your husband and your cats… Sincerely,Brigitte & Philippe Lavalleye, Malmedy, Belgium]

We would like to thank you again for the super tour. The morning spent with you was really one of the highlights of our trip to New York, and you gave us a lot of important information. I have already recommended you everywhere. Many thanks again for everything.

We look back with pleasure on the wonderful time in NYC and on your great tours. Thank you so much again. We wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and send you sweet greetings [chocolate] from Switzerland!

All the best and hopefully we will see each other again sometime, somewhere!Renate Kippel / the 5 from the RUMOX Corporation, Zürich]

[Thank you so much, Frédérique, for the beautiful tour that you put together for us. My clients and I spent a wonderful afternoon discovering the villages of Downtown Manhattan [Chelsea, Greenwich, Soho, Little Italy, Chinatown] in your company. It was great!

We are safely back in Germany and very happy with our stay in New York and with the intense days which went by much too fast. We would like to thank you for your informative and lively tours which were never boring. We are well aware of the fact that you showed us areas and things off the beaten track which the "normal" tourist never gets to see. These unforgettable days will remain in our memory forever.

Many greetings from Jutta Ceisig-Gierse and Franz W. Gierse, Wuppertal]

We had a wonderful few days in New York, the highlight of which was undoubtedly the tour you gave us. It was fascinating and stimulating. Your knowledge and familiarity of such diverse subjects [Chelsea, High Line, Meatpacking, Financial District, Brooklyn] was very impressive. I look forward to utilizing your services at the next opportunity. Perhaps we can think of something "opera related" that would be fun.

We arrived home from this magical trip and are still "digesting" the impressions gathered over the course of our stay. It was fantastic, and we are still raving about it and about you! Your tours and your deep knowledge of New York and its history really made it come alive for us, and we enjoyed your temperament and natural effervescence! You were great! Thank you for these unforgettable days. Come for a visit; we would be really happy to see you.

Congratulations and thank you for your excellent work with our Toyota Chile group in New York. Your contribution and professionalism during our stay in this city were extremely important to the success of this program. I hope to see you in the near future. Regards,

[Discovering New York with Frédérique was an adventure full of cordiality, information, and original stories of the people who built the city. Her professionalism and engagement won us over. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience. We were delighted.

The three days in New York with you were fantastic. We saw so many things! You are really great. The trip surpassed all our expectations. Thank you so much!

Silvio and Nicoletta, Rome]

Dear Frédérique,

Hope all is well with you. This is just a brief e-mail to say "thank you" for all your efforts and valuable recommendations during our stay. Our 4 VIPs hugely enjoyed their tour of Chelsea, Meatpacking, High Line, and Gallery district with you, as well as their dinner and jazz experience. It was a pleasure working with you. Warm regards from Germany!

[My dream became reality with the trip to New York thanks to you, dear Frédérique! Having you as our charming tour guide was the icing on the cake. So much knowledge about everything and so nicely presented--I can't sing your praises high enough.

Denise Marx, Basel]

Dear Frédérique,

Thank you so very much for making our trip to NYC very special. It is obvious from your knowledge of New York that you love your new city of residence. I thought the entire trip was so good, that I would have loved it to have been longer! Many thanks again!

Am contacting you only now sorry! Had a lot to do at home and above all first had to digest our fabulous holiday. Thank you again for your fantastic tour in the few hours we had in NY and an applause for our driver. I/We definitely want to recommend you. I have already told our friends that they should reserve only you if they come to NY!!!! Thank you very much again for your truly great tour!!! I am sure that we will see each other again.

Again, a thousand thanks for a visit out of the ordinary of this city which fascinates the whole world and which you helped us and our grand-daughters discover. They really enjoyed the tour. Good luck to you.

Discovering New York with you was a wonderful experience for all of us and we thought of you and your suggestions and comments often during our memorable stay. We will be happy to recommend you and to contact you again in the future.

[Thanks to Frédérique who helped our family discover New York. During three days, she shared with us her enthusiasm for this dynamic and astonishing city. Her discovery tours through the different neighborhoods are very interesting and emphasize architecture, painting, culture of the land, etc. She was very kind and attentive to our needs.

She was also very helpful in organizing the moments spent discovering the city on our own: advice for a Harlem Gospel, reservation of Sunday brunch, informations on cruises offered in Manhattan, museums, shows, shopping, etc. Unfortunately, we were not able to do everything!!

We went home charmed and promise to be back soon!Françoise Dardenne, Paris]

[So nice to be picked up at the hotel on your birthday by a dynamic, energetic Frédérique! Minutes later, we took the subway and learned all about it and its history—so well, that we were able to use it often during the rest of our stay in New York. We walked over the Brooklyn Bridge and visited the exciting Financial District. Then we were off to a Gospel in Harlem which was beautiful--something we really wanted to experience. Frédérique speaks excellent German and it is wonderful to relax and listen to her relate the history and interesting facts of the different neighborhoods of the city. We also really enjoyed her great advice on where to go, where to eat, etc. The next day, with luxury sedan and driver this time in addition to Frédérique, we were able to get a wonderful impression of Brooklyn—a multicultural and diverse facet of this amazing city. Our vacation was too short, but we will be back! Thank you for enriching our stay in New York and take care!

Mirjam and Flavio from Switzerland]

Hello Frédérique,

Thank you for making our recent trip to New York so special. I felt that you shared with us your love for this wonderful city and added an extra dimension to our trip. Thank you too for the morning spent with you walking in different areas of Brooklyn and over the bridge and going across to Staten Island after visiting the financial district. We saw it in a different way from the way we would have seen it on our own. Alison and I enjoyed our extra couple of days doing some shopping and spending lots of time in Central Park. We would love to return some time in the future. Thank you again, Frédérique. Warmest regards...

[While planning a trip to New York in December, we found Frédérique extremely helpful and knowledgeable and booked three half-day tours with driver and small SUV, everything organized by Frédérique. We started one evening with a New York By Night/Night Tour to see the Christmas illuminations: pure magic. The next day, discovery of Downtown Manhattan and the financial district—rich in past and present history narrated as we moved along. Then visit of the 9/11 Memorial—so much emotion on the site of this tragedy: we felt the dignity of a whole Nation through your explanations here. Then off to Greenwich, Soho, Meatpacking—and the joy of discovering little places which shed light on life in New York. We finished with a Harlem & Bronx tour and were happy to follow Frédérique's advice to hear Gospel in a Harlem church that Sunday. We met a person of quality who guided us through New York with culture and great humor. Frédérique was attentive to our well-being at all times, and kind enough to make jazz and restaurant reservations for us in good New York restaurants. Thank you, Frédérique! It was a magical trip—all our expectations were met by a Master hand.
